I’m not sure if or how these are related to the Modular Busou Shinki figures that Konami announced not to long ago, but Konami announced three Busou Shin Hime MMS figures. The ladies, Tsugaru, the EX Weapon Set figure; Beni Itogushi, the Samurai type figure; and Saifosu, the Kishi (Knight) type, all seem to have modular parts on their bedoies to allow for expandability and customization. Konami’s really getting into the super cross promotion stuff lately and they’ve been blitzing just about every market. Interesting to see. Anyway, Tsugaru looks sort of bad. The color choices for her are just sort of poo and she’s a bit loaded down with weapons. Too much of good thing? Beni looks sort of nice. Again, she’s packing more weapons than should be allowed in any sane figure. The colored version of Beni will really make or break it, same for Saifosu. Saifosu is looking the best of the lot here. Again, she could go horribly wrong. I don’t know, the sample drawings that put next to the prototypes aren’t inspiring a lot of confidence. I put them all up after the jump. You’re looking at 3,675 yen each this December, or 1,785 for Tsugaro, since that might just be a weapon set? Whatever. The whole thing is misleading.

Well, them all meaning the one picture of each. I’d really like to bitch about my job right now(worked until ten…), but I have lots more figure shit to post. Someone thank me, PLEASE! After all these figure things, I have to do Hump Day Doujin over at Onii-chan no Ecchi. Damn it all! YOU GUYS BETTER ENJOY THIS!

You know, I’m digging these, especially Beni.

I don’t mind Tsugaru in the least but I think I’m more inclined to hunt down Beni and Saifosu, in that order.
